Cocoa Nut Butter No-Bake Fudge

One of my favorite food bloggers is Johanna of Green Gourmet Giraffe. Recently, she posted a no bake fudge that had my mouth watering and of course I just had to try it, though I generally prefer savory treats. The addition of maple syrup, nut butter and pistachios really make this a rather almost healthy sweet. Easy to prepare and oh so addictive, this is a must try recipe for sure. My friends were most happy with this fudge and they could not stop munching on it, despite a full tummy after dinner.

In a medium bowl, mix together the nut butter and melted butter or coconut oil. Stir in the maple syrup and cocoa. Stir in the salt and spices and fold in the pistachios.

Line a 5 or 6 inch glass or metal pan with parchment paper and transfer the mixture, taking care to spread evenly. Freeze until the fudge is firm, cut into small squares, and store any leftovers in the freezer.

This looks tasty- I think I'd like to make it for some guests this week!Just for clarification- does it stay ready-to-eat in the freezer? Or, would I want to let it sit before serving, if I made it ahead of time?Thanks :)Hannah
